Live from ZEVIA production lines!


As I type, fresh Zevia Natural Orange cans are being filled with our delicious Zevia! This morning the "run" started with 8000 cases of Natural Cola, next we ran our first ever production of Zevia Natural Ginger Root Beer. So for Barbara and Laura in Seattle, and Cy in Baton Rouge, and Jamie in northern California (and many others who have been asking for this flavor), this Ginger Root Beer is for you!! It is hard to describe taste, flavor, smell in words, but the GRB has that traditional root beer taste, a perfect sweetness and tang, and finishes really crisp. I am not traditionally a root beer fan (allegiance to my Natural Cola), but this is a real treat and I think you root beer fans will not be disappointed.

Production days are early days, the first cans of Natural Cola came off the line just after 6 am, and before that time, preparations are done (mixing the ingredients, lining up the cans, etc.). So it was another early morning for us (and this morning, an early morning hotel-gym-edition workout). There is nothing like the thrill of seeing our little babies roll off the line (and today, we're talking almost half a million cans).

You will notice we've tweaked the cans a bit. Our dear Stacey (ever positive Account Executive) has affectionately named the cola "red necks", as the neck or rim of the can now has a distinct color to identify the flavor (Red = Natural Cola, Orange = Natural Orange, Limey Green = Natural Twist, Tangy Bronze = Natural Ginger Root Beer).

OK folks, back to the Zevia run, where Natural Orange is just finishing up and Natural Twist is in queue (cute little Limey Necks) ...
